Business summary
A commercial facilities maintenance contractor delivering planned and reactive works to retail, education and public-sector estates across the North West. Revenue is predominantly contracted, with a directly employed engineering workforce and a 24-hour response desk.
The business holds framework positions on three public-sector buying arrangements and services approximately 900 sites under planned maintenance schedules. Reactive work is dispatched from an in-house helpdesk operating a 24-hour rota. Engineers are directly employed rather than subcontracted, which underpins both margin and service consistency.
